i had looked at that gun - nice condition and with a number of rather unique features. and, although it's been several years for me, i agree that clay is an exceptionally nice guy to deal with. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1189991236

i will be interested in what you learn from the gun....is it a pre-war 200, with fitted thru lumps, or purdy locks? and, i see similar small leaves alongside the rib on several between the wars merkels, and wonder if they conceal a joint in the rib?
